I use to never answer the housephone when I stayed with my parents.  :plzstop: and my mom would  be mad when I'd missed calls (mostly for her)...


I'd be like, "that's what caller ID is for" just call them back!  :supluv:




I don't have a house phone in my apartment. Don't see the point.

My father  refuses to get a cell phone so he literally lives like its the 80s. U can't contact him when he isn't home, he gets home and checks the msgs, and he ONLY uses the house line. As a matter of fact, they have two landlines because my mother has a fax line

Well, with kids...
You need a home number for teachers, family, etc.
A solid number that EVERYONE can use.
Cell phones are more personal, IMO.

Wait, I'm lying.
I do have a house phone... But I never used it or found out what the number was.
:dead:
It's attached to my cable bundle (cable, internet, phone) -- cause it gets me a cheaper price vs just having cable and internet.
The cable company said I would be able to connect the house phone to my cell phone.

But wouldn't a cell be more reliable? What if they need to reach out during the daytime, which is most likely the case. Parents aren't typically at home during the day and may not have a work phone.

I never answer my house phone. The only reason I even have one is because of this Verizon FIOS bundle. I give bill collectors old cellphone numbers.

There's an option to have calls directed to your cell.
